Extrañarte means "to miss you." While "to miss" might seem like a common verb, its use in Spanish often carries a deeper emotional weight than a simple "I miss you" in English.
In this song, the repetition of "Voy a extrañarte" (I'm going to miss you) emphasizes the profound and enduring sense of loss the singer feels. It's a central theme, making this word not just common, but intensely significant and emotionally resonant within the lyrics.
Andrés Cepeda, a fantastic artist from Colombia, brings us a song about the deep ache of missing someone. "Voy A Extrañarte" [I'm Going To Miss You] is all about that constant, inescapable feeling when someone you love is no longer there. He sings, "Voy a extrañarte todo el tiempo / Voy a pensarte a cada instante" [I'm going to miss you all the time / I'm going to think of you every moment], really emphasizing how this person is always on his mind.
It's clear this isn't just a fleeting sadness; it's a permanent part of his life. He knows there's "nunca habra un consuelo / Que me aleje de quererte" [never going to be a comfort / That takes me away from loving you]. Even though he can't touch them anymore, only see their reflection, he promises, "Voy a tenerte aquí más cerca / Como parte de mi vida" [I'm going to have you closer here / As part of my life]. It's a powerful declaration that even absence can't erase love, and he'll remember everything, even if it hurts more.
